We caution our readers to put no re-
lance in stories about meteors which,
come very Lear those who were startled
by them. We were fooled once, about
thirty years ago, by one Of these brilliant
wanderers in space. 1t passed right over
the Etchfield fair grounds, apparently,
and struck the earth over on Chestnut
hill. We were 50 fully convinced that
it buried itself in Eitchfield soil that we
cogitated upon the advisability Of going
over to unearth the thing.
"Pshaw, Joe." said the good old father
when we reported the matter on our ar
rival home, Iii was more likely hundreds
Of miles away" 1T can't be, father, /"
we replied; H. b. Graves saw it and
said he should think it passed over John
H. Hubbard's house. or at least not
farther down than the fair grounds.
Why, father. we heard it,
The next days New York papers weak

on meteoric distance. The same brilliant

rrsc ngs Of the Gaze Dwellers-Arctis
Tribss-On the Losnyo Coast.
Dr.. Richard Andree in reviewing the
art productions Of savage tribes as shown
BY their drawings, emphasizes the great
development which this talent can attain
In conjunction with low state Of psycb-
ical development. Travellers often men
ton the power Of savages to rapidly
sketch Characteristic figures, and among
the oldest relics of the cave dwellers we
find distinct tracings of animal forms.
As in 50 many other respects an analogy
Is present between the drawings Of prim-
tive men and Of children. Figure
sketching lin outline) and ornamentation
are the prominent characteristics Of both,
while the power Of landscape painting, as
well as a sense for natural beauty, is a
much later acquisition. Among the
forms drawn piunrs are seldom found;
what is full Of motion and life-the
horse. etc.-first attracts attention, and
is transferred to bone, clay or stone.
At times ornamental and figure work
go together, but much oftener develop
ment Of the one or other alone is possible.
The Maoris and FIJI islanders confine
themselves to ornaments. and seldom
draw figure. Among the Australians
the development Of ornamentation has
stopped at certain stage-with recur-
rent stereotyped forms Of wedges, crosses
and "herring bone" patterns - while
scenes from their doings are recorded
with much fidelity, and color is often
used to lend reality to the design. The
Bushmen excel in painting Though with
out perspective), and trace with great &C
curacy the scenes Of daily life, of hunt
ing, warning, etc. As figure painting
allows Of very various development, W.
find different styles Of conventionalism-
the art of ancient Peru is notable ex-
ample-in different tribes. Other peoples
and here the Arctic tribes stand in the
first rank-aim at a faithful representa-
tion here: Ornamentation finds no place,
and such subjects AS fishing. sleighing,
etc. are the usual ones. The attempts
at human forms are often failures; but
the drawings of their most common ami
mails. as the reindeer. are sufficiently ex-
act to serve As means Of geological iden-
tification.

MAKING FANCY CANDLES.

The Hlaterials Used In Modern Ti0Sa
Candles for the Church Tr.ds.
A the fashion for lighting up the bril-.
liant society devotees by curious and
beautiful wax candles in magnificent
candelabras and candiesticks ID rapidly
increasing. the trade in these fine goods
is correspondingiy increasing. Up 10
the past six or seven years the bulk OF
fancy candles went to church osEani&a-
tons solely. Now the fashion is to use
them At brilliant banquets, tasty small
dinners, at grand evening reoepti0Ss, So
ciety' g pet charity balls. tea parties, il pict-
ure galleries, millionaire halls and stud
les, in renowned artists studios. and on
the desks Of grocery trade papers edi-
tors. There are four times Is many fan
cy candles sold now a. there were three
years ago.
The materials used in this modern en-
ightened age are mostly wax and com.
position of wax. The tallow dips Of our
forefathers are now sent to South Amer
ica. the West Indies, and . few to the
southwest. They, Of course, lose their
rutundity in passing into trOpic warmths,
and are therefore used by the natives
largely for lubricating the outer cuticle
Of their bodies. Candles are q compost
ton, in detail. Of paraffine, wax and
stearic acid. The latter is the solid con-
stituent Of tallow. wax is really beeswax,
refined by sun bleaching. and parsfiine
ID the residuum Of petroleum from crude
oil. With all other lines the advance
ment in the manufacture of candles ID IN
accord. Tho modern star candle or ad-
amantine is ''thing Of beauty and joy
forever r''-or until snuffed out.
1t has been found in the past that the
manufacture of the very finest Of fancy
candles in this country does not pay. and
England, France and Germany hold the
ttade, but on many other fancy lines the
American manufacturers are taking it
away from ''Over the water" For up
wards Of two and a quarter centuries q
London house has had the lead abroad as
candle makers. The very latest styles
are st once sent to this country, and this
house has bsen largely instrumental in
revolutionizing the business here.
Vienna sends to this country fancy
candles, some Of which are peculiar,
being made Of "Ceresin." also called
''OzOkerite," or natural earth wax.
Extra big candles are used also at Easter.
The large candles are made for church
trade, but are seldom made fancy. The
lowering Of prices in the past few years
Is also remarkable. Fancy candles that
now cost $50 per gross could hardly be
bought then at the same price per dozen.
In the coloring Of fancy goods an Or
dinary white candle is used. and ID gut
tered along the sides BY machinery.

tended to lower prices.-Grooery World.
